    "Amazing headphone with great quality. And really good for gaming....Great starter (budget) gaming headphones...I would not grab these as my first choice for music as they don’t have much bass and the sound can be a bit light versus the richness of a more music geared set BUT that’s why they’re marketed as gaming headphones.
